    What is with all the IT stuff?

    God I am sorry but I am on a bit of a rant here.
    Maybe it is because I am having a rough night -Day 4 AF, hubby away.
    I think all of you are FAB! - I have been lurking here for awhile, posting a little but reading mostly. I think there are some great characters here - especially some of the immediate names that spring to mind are Betty Boop, Doggy Girl, TLRGS, Ripple, Hippy 37, Cindi, and so so many many more - too many names to mention so apologies to anyone not mentioned (you are all very cool to even be on this site I think and all very cool in my mind - as insane as it might be at present)
    I do not mean to be negative but lately I seem to think that IT skills have taken over everything else. I am on Day 4 (yet AGAIN!) and finding it REALLY REALLY HARD, feeling like a neutered cat on wheels if anyone can even begin to understand that - not that I can either as I am not a neutered cat - just a saying I guess. Maybe it is because I have 5 cats and a dog lined up to be fed at present.
    Anyway, spare a thought for us less IT literate folks; changing avartars, you tube etc. etc. I having f****** clue. Part of my reason for having problems at work is that I am not that computer literate and not very competitive. Personally, I think all the IT stuff is cool and would love to learn in a user friendly environment. - any chance of you guys doing online lessons?
    From someone who would love to get you all know you better but feels scared to (for many reasons, obviously not just IT stuff) . I find it hard to make friends but think I am a very loyal one once I do, I feel I am very untrendy but I also know I am a very friendly person, just having a clue when it comes to compter stuff, even as basic as texting - and I seriously need to get my shit together - my step son is 17 and and coming over to stay the weekend and even my two young children (5 & 3) know more than I do.
    Please Help!

    Best Wishes

    Bandit,

    Believe it or not, some of this GUI IT stuff is new to me, too.

    Why don't you post a specific question as a thread and see the responses?

    Limers just posted a thread about how to get cool avatars.

    I am waiting to see what people say, too. Because Hippie and Lushy and others actually edit their own avatars to personalize them.

    I am lazy and will just wait to read how it is done rather than research it.

          You can go to the "test" thread and play around and experiment with stuff as well as read about how to post pics and links in other threads.
          Sometimes I wonder...."Why is that frisbee getting bigger?"...and then it hits me.

            Hi Bandit, I too feel like a dummy and I work at a computer all day as a secretary - I keep having to tell folks that yes I can word process but anything else is a slow learning curve. Honestly just ask... anyone here will be only too happy to help you out, talking you through right from the very beginning. I took a long time to even find my avator let alone know what an avator was - lol.

                Hi, Bandit. Thanks for giving me the courage to post a question I thought was just too obvious for words but couldn't figure out.

                When I check the box "Quote message in reply" I can't get anything to happen. How does that work?
